Use and Care Guide
Note: Damage caused by inadequate or improper
foundation support is not covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty. A spa should rest
completely flush with its foundation, therefore, do
not endeavor to hand level your spa. The spa
should not be shimmed in any way in an effort to
level it. This may crack your spa shell or cause
other internal damage. It is the responsibility of the
spa owner to provide a proper foundation for the
spa. Any attempt to manually level your spa, will
void the warranty.
A spa filled with water is very heavy. Existing decks and
concrete patios must be inspected by a licensed contractor
to determine adequate support. Your base must have a
minimum of 150 pounds per sq. ft. load bearing capacity.
Add additional bracing if necessary.
Place the spa on an elevated foundation so that water
drains away from it. Proper drainage will keep
components protected from rain and wet weather.
New concrete patios must be a 4” minimum depth with
reinforced wire placed in the concrete.
New wood decks should have (2 x 10) floor joists and
(4 x 4) or (6 x 6) post depending on deck height.
Consult a structural engineer or contractor to ensure the
proper support for the height and size of your deck.
